I made a navbar using voyager's menu builder. I'm trying to add localization functionality to my app but can't figure out how to pass a {lang} parameter to this line of code:
@foreach ($items as $menu_item)
<a href='{{ $menu_item->link() }}' class="nav-link">
@endforeach
Normally I would do this:
<a href='{{ route('shopIndex', App::getLocale()) }}' class="nav-link">Shop</a>
I tried doing this which didn't work:
@foreach ($items as $menu_item)
<a href='{{ route($menu_item->link(), App::getLocale()) }}' class="nav-link">
@endforeach
Any ideas?
SOLVED: running dd($menu_item) gave me these attributes:
#attributes: array:13 [▼
"id" => 18
"menu_id" => 2
"title" => "Shop"
"url" => ""
"target" => "_self"
"icon_class" => null
"color" => "#000000"
"parent_id" => null
"order" => 1
"created_at" => "2023-02-12 07:31:09"
"updated_at" => "2023-02-13 07:45:46"
"route" => "shopIndex"
"parameters" => null
]
$menu_item->route gives the route name which I can put in a route helper and pass the parameters I want.
Note: some links don't have a route name so you need to define a conditional in case of the links without a route name.
<a href='{{ route($menu_item->route ? $menu_item->route : 'cartIndex', App::getLocale()) }}' class="nav-link">
